Acme has introduced the latest muscle car classic from the late 1960's and it is a fast one! The Acme A1806114 1968 Plymouth Barracuda Super Stock Test Mule in 1:18 scale diecast is a replica of a test car Plymouth made in late 1967. The car was made to run as hard as they could to test the breaking limits of the components. The test and tune car pushed the limits of parts for the NHRA Super Stock series. Many thought components of the car would not hold up to the 426 HEMI's 600+ hp, but not a single part failed in the testing process. This car laid the groundwork for the HEMI Cuda's success in drag racing for years to come. In 1968, and the years to follow, these Cudas would set numerous track records and win many of the NHRA's major drag racing events!

The Acme A1806114 1968 Plymouth Barracuda Super Stock Test Mule 1:18 scale diecast car features a detailed 426 HEMI engine, opening doors, trunk, and removable hood. The interior features racing bucket seats and is fully finished. The suspension is fully functional and sports front and rear drag tires. The estimated production of this Acme Diecast car is around 750. We expect it to be available in January or February. Pick one up today before they are gone!

AUTOart Bugatti Chiron 1:18 Scale Models

AUTOart has released some new 2017 Bugatti Chiron 1:18 scale composite/diecast models. All these models feature opening doors, front luggage compartment with two pieces of luggage, a removable engine cover, and an adjustable rear spoiler. The interior is very detailed with carpeted floor boards and carbon fiber look accents.

The real Bugatti Chiron is a beast of a super car! Bugatti fitted the car with a 8.0L quad-turbocharged 16 cylinder engine that produces almost 1500hp. This powerplant propels the Chiron 0-60 in 2.3 seconds and a top speed of 261 mph. It also features an all-wheel drive system. This type of performance doesn't come cheap, as the cost of this car is about $3 million dollars.

The AUTOart 70991 Bugatti Chiron in black with red accents is available now. It features gloss black paint with red accents on the front and sides. Gloss black wheels are accented with the red brake calipers. AUTOart is releasing three other color combinations this summer. AUTOart 70992 is Argent Silver with Dark Atlantic Blue and a tan interior. AUTOart 70993 is French Racing Blue with Dark Atlantic Blue and a tan interior. AUTOart 70994 is yellow and black.

Argent Silver and French Racing Blue will be available in July and the yellow car is expected in August.

Don Yenko’s vision of the ultimate Camaro lives on for the 2018 model year thanks to SVE (Specialty Vehicle Engineering). They produced just 25 of the supercharged Camaros. SVE started with a 2018 Chevy Camaro SS with the 1LE performance option. The stock LT1 engine is bored out to 6.8L displacement and features a forged 4340 steel crankshaft and H-beam rods, forged aluminum pistons, ported LT4 cylinder heads, upgraded the fuel system, and fed it with a custom- built supercharger. It has more than twice the factory 455hp and SVE beefed up it up to a teeth-chattering 1000hp!

Highway 61 has informed us that the much anticipated release of the 1969 Chevrolet C-10 Baja 1000 Truck in 1:18 scale will be in June. After quite a few delays, we now have pictures of the actual diecast and it looks great! The diecast features graphics of the original livery when the truck was driven in the Mexican 1000 Rally (Baja 1000). It comes with a detailed interior, opening doors, hood and tailgate, spare tire, and a detailed engine compartment. Like other Highway 61 releases it also features a rotating driveshaft and rubber tires. Part number Highway 61 18007.

The original truck comes with a lot of history. The truck was prepared by Vic Hickey as a baja race truck and raced quite a few times. Steve McQueen purchased the truck in 1970. Under his ownership it was raced to victory at Riverside by off-road racing legend Mickey Thompson. In 1972, McQueen sold the truck to fund divorce proceedings. A employee of Vic Hickey purchased the truck and used it as a farm truck for many years before being restored. The truck was sold at a Mecum Auction in 2013 for $60,000.
